Source-wise comparative resistance traits in C. jejuni and C. coli strains. (A and B) Individual antimicrobial-wise comparison of the occurrence of resistance types among the strains of C. jejuni and C. coli, respectively, isolated from the farms (F) and live bird markets (M). Antimicrobial resistance types are indicated by S, I, and R, meaning sensitive, intermediate resistant and resistant, respectively. Eight commonly used antimicrobials at standard doses (μg) were examined: amoxicillin (AMX, 30 μg), tetracycline (TET, 30 μg), erythromycin (ER, 30 μg), ciprofloxacin (CIP, 5 μg), norfloxacin (NOR, 10 μg), streptomycin (STR, 10 μg), azithromycin (AZM, 30 μg), and gentamicin (GM, 10 μg). (C-D and E-F) Comparison between the farms and live bird markets of the variations in overall occurrence of full resistant or intermediate resistant strains of C. jejuni and C. coli, respectively. Composite variation of both resistance types in C. jejuni and C. coli strains, considering all the tested antimicrobials, are shown as box plots. The bottom and top of the box plots indicate the 25th and 75th percentile. Horizontal lines in the boxes indicate median values and their standard deviations are shown as vertical bars. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01, significant differences (paired t test) between mean values of the samples
